Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
Sections 302--305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin an acknowledgment noting receipt of Notices of Intent to Remediate. An acknowledgment of the receipt of a Notice of Intent to Remediate is used to identify a site where a person proposes to, or has been required to, respond to a release of a regulated substance at a site. Persons intending to use the Background Standard, Statewide Health Standard, the Site-Specific Standard or who intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area must file a Notice of Intent to Remediate with the Department. A Notice of Intent to Remediate filed with the Department provides a brief description of the location of the site, a list of known or suspected contaminants at the site, the proposed remediation measures for the site and a description of the intended future use of the site. A person who demonstrates attainment of one, a combination of the cleanup standards or who receives approval of a special industrial area remediation identified under the act will be relieved of further liability for the remediation of the site for any contamination identified in reports submitted to and approved by the Department. Furthermore, the person shall not be subject to citizen suits or other contribution actions brought by responsible persons not participating in the remediation.
Under sections 304(n)(1)(ii) and 305(c)(2) of the act, there is a 30-day public and municipal comment period for sites proposed for remediation using a Site-Specific Standard, in whole or in part, and for sites remediated as a special industrial area. This period begins when a summary of the Notice of Intent to Remediate is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the area of the site. For the sites identified, proposed for remediation to a Site-Specific Standard or as a special industrial area, the municipality within which the site is located may request to be involved in the development of the remediation and reuse plans for the site if the request is made within 30 days of the date specified. During this comment period, the municipality may request that the person identified as the remediator of the site develop and implement a public involvement plan. Requests to be involved and comments should be directed to the remediator of the site.
For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

Under 25 Pa. Code § 127.44, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) provides notice that CraftMaster Manufacturing, Inc. (P. O. Box 311, Towanda, PA 18848) has submitted to the Department a plan approval application for the following modifications of boiler no. 3 and associated dry fuel handling equipment at the Towanda plant located in Wysox Township, Bradford County: increase the annual average steam rate from 125,000 lbs/hr to 150,000 lbs/hr with a corresponding increase in the annual average heat input from 190.4 mmBtu/hr to 233.4 mmBtu/hr, increase the 24-hour average heat input rate from 242.4 mmBtu/hr to 273.2 mmBtu/hr, and increase the throughput to dry fuel handling equipment from 136,700 dry tons per year to 201,702 dry tons per year. The respective facility is a major facility for which a Title V operating permit (08-00003) has been issued. The Department intends to issue a plan approval to authorize the applicant to perform the modifications.
The proposed modifications have the potential to emit the following type and amount of air contaminants: CO--344.7 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, VOC--35.3 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, NO--201.7 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, PM--44 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, PM10--24.5 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, SOx--56.9 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, hydrogen chloride--35.8 tons in any 12-consecutive month period, mercury--6.8 lbs in any 12-consecutive month period and approximately 9.6 tons per year of ammonia. In addition, the proposed throughput increase to dry fuel handling equipment would result in a PM emission increase of 2.7 tons per year and 2.5 tons per year of PM10.
The Department's review of the information contained in the application indicates that the proposed boiler modifications will comply with all applicable requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the BAT requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12, the requirements of 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Db--Standards of Performance for Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam Generating Units and 25 Pa. Code §§ 123.11, 123.13 and 123.41. Based on this finding, the Department intends to issue a plan approval for the proposed modifications. Additionally, if the Department determines that the sources and the air cleaning devices are operating in compliance with the plan approval conditions, the conditions established in the plan approval will be incorporated into the operating permit by means of an administrative amendment under 25 Pa. Code § 127.450.
The Department proposes to place in the plan approval the following conditions to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:
1. The conditions contained in Title V operating permit 08-00003 remain in effect unless superseded or amended by conditions contained herein. If there is a conflict between a condition or requirement contain in this plan approval and a condition or requirement contained in Title V operating permit 08-00003, the permittee shall comply with the condition or requirement contained in this plan approval rather than the conflicting condition or requirement contained in Title V Operating Permit 08-00003.
2. This condition supersedes condition no. 010 of Source ID 033 of Title V operating permit 08-00003 under the BAT provisions in 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12, the air contaminant emissions from the boiler shall be controlled by the following:

41-327-003A: PMF Industries, Inc. (2601 Reach Road, Williamsport, PA 17701) for the modification of a batch vapor degreaser in the City of Williamsport, Lycoming County.
The batch vapor degreaser uses trichloroethylene, which has been designated as both a VOC and a HAP by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, to clean metal parts. It is equipped with a refrigerated freeboard chiller to help reduce trichloroethylene emissions. The proposed modification is an increase in the allowable trichloroethylene emissions from the batch vapor degreaser from the current limit of 9.99 tons per year to 13.0 tons per year.
The facility in which the batch vapor degreaser is located is not currently a major (Title V) facility for any air contaminant but will become one for hazardous air pollutants after the proposed modification has occurred. The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) review of the information provided by PMF Industries, Inc. indicates that the modified batch vapor degreaser should comply with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the BAT requirement of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12 and the requirements of Subpart T of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, 40 CFR 63.460--63.470 (Halogenated Solvent Cleaning). Based on this finding, the Department of Environmental Protection proposes to issue plan approval for the proposed modification.
The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to be issued to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:
1. Conditions contained in Operating Permit 41-327-003 remain in effect unless superseded or amended by a condition contained herein.
2. The amount of trichloroethylene used in the batch vapor degreaser shall not exceed 13.0 tons in any 12-consecutive month period. In determining compliance with this limit, any trichloroethylene shipped off-site in liquid form need not be counted as usage provided it is 100% trichloroethylene. Mixtures of trichloroethylene, sludge, and the like, may not be excluded or subtracted unless the trichloroethylene content for each drum or other container of the mixture has been determined through appropriate analysis and then only the trichloroethylene portion may be excluded.
3. The permittee shall maintain accurate and comprehensive records of the amount of trichloroethylene added to the batch vapor degreaser each month as well as the amount of 100% trichloroethylene shipped offsite each month. If the permittee excludes or subtracts from the monthly trichloroethylene usage total, any trichloro- ethylene that is contained in a mixture of trichloro- ethylene and sludge or trichloroethylene and any other material which is shipped offsite, records must also be maintained of the amount of trichloroethylene in each such shipment, the date of shipment, the trichloro- ethylene content of each drum or container shipped and a description of the analytical method used to determine the trichloroethylene content. Records maintained under this condition shall be retained onsite for at least 5 years and shall be made available to the Department upon request.
4. Within 120 days of being notified by the Department to submit a Title V operating permit application for the facility in which the batch vapor degreaser is located, the permittee shall submit a complete and comprehensive application to the Department.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 2
The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).
Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis for selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling analytical results which demonstrate that remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Submission of plans and reports, other than the final report, shall also be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. These include the remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan for a site-specific standard remediation. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements.
For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

Code § 250.8, administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act), require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of final actions on plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the remediation standards of the act. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Plans and reports required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of remediation to a site-specific standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media, benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by provisions of the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.

Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the Watershed of Glades Creek in Somerset County. Southwest Regional Office, Water Management Program Manager, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4745.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will accept comments on the proposed TMDL developed for the watershed of Glades Creek in Somerset County. The TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Pennsylvania's 1996 303(d) list indicates which stream segments in the watershed are impaired. The listings of these segments were due to impairments caused by sedimentation.
There currently are no State or Federal in-stream numerical water quality criteria for sediment. Therefore, the Department utilized a reference watershed approach to implement the applicable narrative criteria. The proposed TMDL sets allowable loadings of sediment in the watershed of Glades Creek. Sediment loadings were allocated among all land use categories present in the watershed. Data used in establishing this TMDL were generated using a water quality analysis model (AVGWLF) designed by the Pennsylvania State University.
The data and all supporting documentation used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. The proposed TMDL and information on the TMDL program can be viewed on the Department's website at www.dep.state.pa.us (DEP Keyword: TMDL). To request a copy of this TMDL, contact, Joe Boylan at 400 Waterfront Drive; Pittsburgh, PA 15222, joboylan@state.pa.us.
The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency for approval. Written comments will be accepted at the previously noted address and must be received by November 13, 2006. A public meeting to discuss the technical merits of the TMDL will be held on October 26, 2006, at 6:30 p.m. at the Somerset REC Building, 223 Industrial Park Road; Somerset, PA 15501.
Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the Foundry Run Watershed in Jefferson County Knox District Mining Office: P. O. Box 669, 310 Best Avenue, Knox, PA 16232-0669, (814) 797-1191.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is holding a public meeting to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL for the Foundry Run Watershed in Jefferson County. The meeting will be held on October 4, 2006, at 3 p.m. at the Jefferson County Conservation District Office in Brookville, PA. The proposed TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. One stream segment in the Foundry Run Watershed has been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1999, 2000, 2002 and 2004 Pennsylvania 303(d) lists due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segment and miles degraded are shown in the following table:
Stream Code Stream Name Miles Degraded 47438 Foundry Run 1.2 The proposed plan provides calculations of stream's total capacity to accept metals (aluminum, iron, manganese and acidity), pH and maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:
Parameter Criterion value (mg/l) Total Recoverable/ Dissolved Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable Iron 1.5 Total Recoverable Manganese 1.00 Total Recoverable pH 6.0--9.0 NA The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. The effects of this are still present. All of the allocations made in the TMDL are load allocations, which are made to nonpoint sources of pollution.
The TMDL was developed using Monte Carlo Simulation to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99% of the time. Monte Carlo Simulation allows for the expansion of a data set based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria were exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the TMDL.
The TMDL sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. The basis of information used in the establishment of this TMDL is field data collected over the past 3 years.
The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. To request a copy of the proposed TMDL and an information sheet, contact Ely Heferle, Water Pollution Biologist, Knox District Mining Office, White Memorial Building, P. O. Box 669, Knox, PA 16232-0669, (814) 797-1191, eheferle@state.pa.us. Directions to the Jefferson County Conservation District Office can also be obtained by contacting this address.
The proposed TMDL for the Foundry Run Watershed can be accessed through the Department's website at www.dep.state.pa.us (DEP Keyword: TMDL).
Written comments will be accepted at the previously noted address and must be postmarked by November 29, 2006. Persons who plan to make a presentation at the public meeting should notify the Department by 4 p.m. Monday, October 2, 2006. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the Pine Run Watershed in Jefferson and Armstrong Counties The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is holding a public meeting to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL for the Pine Run Watershed in Jefferson and Armstrong Counties. The meeting will be held on October 4, 2006, at 3 p.m. at the Jefferson County Conservation District Office in Brookville, PA. The proposed TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act, . Five stream segments in the Pine Run Watershed have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998, 2000, 2002 and 2004 Pennsylvania 303(d) lists due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segments and miles degraded are shown in the following table:

Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the North Branch Bear Creek Watershed in Butler County The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is holding a public meeting to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL for the North Branch Bear Creek Watershed in Butler County. The meeting will be held on October 11, 2006, beginning at 2 p.m. at the USDA Service Center building in Butler, PA. The proposed TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Thirteen stream segments in the North Branch Bear Creek Watershed have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998, 2000, 2002 and 2004 Pennsylvania 303(d) lists due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segments and miles degraded are shown in the following table:
Stream Code Stream Name Miles Degraded 49118 North Branch Bear Creek 8.0 49124 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 2.6 49125 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 2.4 49127 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 1.0 49128 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 0.7 49129 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 0.5 49130 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 0.4 49132 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 1.8 49133 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 1.1 49134 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 0.5 49135 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 0.5 49136 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 0.4 64604 North Branch Bear Creek, UNT 0.7 The proposed plan provides calculations of stream's total capacity to accept metals (aluminum, iron, manganese and acidity), pH and maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:
Parameter Criterion value (mg/l) Total Recoverable/ Dissolved Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable Iron 1.5 Total Recoverable Manganese 1.00 Total Recoverable pH 6.0--9.0 NA The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. This watershed was heavily mined for coal in the late 19th and to the mid 20th centuries. The effects of this are still present. All of the allocations made in the TMDL are load allocations, which are made to nonpoint sources of pollution.
The TMDL was developed using Monte Carlo Simulation to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99% of the time. Monte Carlo Simulation allows for the expansion of a data set based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria were exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the TMDL.
The TMDL sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. The basis of information used in the establishment of this TMDL is field data collected over the past 5 years.
The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. To request a copy of the proposed TMDL and an information sheet, contact Ely Heferle, Water Pollution Biologist, Knox District Mining Office, White Memorial Building, P. O. Box 669, Knox, PA 16232-0669, (814) 797-1191, eheferlestate.pa.us. Directions to the USDA Service Center meeting place can also be obtained by contacting this address.

Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the Little Scrubgrass Creek Watershed in Butler and Venango Counties The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is holding a public meeting to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL for the Little Scrubgrass Creek Watershed in Butler and Venango Counties. The meeting will be held on October 11, 2006, beginning at 2 p.m. at the USDA Service Center building in Butler, PA. The proposed TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Seven stream segments in the Little Scrubgrass Creek Watershed have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998, 2000, 2002 and 2004 Pennsylvania 303(d) lists due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals.
